thanks. Dollar type stores had ‘em the cheapest.

I pretty much cleaned ‘em out from everywhere around here.

One night about midnight, my wife and I were in Meijer.
One lane open. NECCOs were in the “impulse buy” aisle by the register.
I stopped the checkout, went across all the checkout aisles(maybe 20?) and got all the NECCOs they had left.
I ended up with about 4 boxes of them (24 to a box).
My wife kept saying...”I'm not with him”...we're the only ones in the store...too funny !

Right now, looks like I'm stuck with ordering online from those who had insight to buy a ton of them

From Wiki:
As of 2018, the future of Necco Wafers was unclear after the Necco company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. [3] Round Hill Investments purchased the company out of bankruptcy for $17.3 million in May 2018, but then abruptly ended operations at Necco on July 24, 2018, citing “sanitation issues” it claimed it was previously unaware of. Round Hill has sold off various Necco lines to other candy companies. The Necco Wafer, Sweethearts (the original conversation heart), and Canada Mints, as well as the equipment used to manufacture them, were sold to the Spangler Candy Company of Bryan, Ohio. In September 2018, Spangler announced plans to return the Necco Wafer to the market, with a target date of November 2019.
